Live on TNT Sports 1: Saturday 12:30. Newcastle Utd v Chelsea. Newcastle United lost last weekend’s Tyne-Wear derby and now have a tricky lunchtime encounter against Chelsea. Bet365 are prepared to chalk up the Magpies at 8/5 to overcome a Blues side who sit fourth in the standings. Enzo Maresca’s team are 8/5 with Betfred to claim the spoils although they only have a 50% success rate on the road.
We think both teams can find the net at St James’ Park and the BTTS Yes selection is chalked up at 4/7 with Ladbrokes. Cole Palmer could be a good shout to score for the visitors following his return from injury and the England man is 2/1 with Betfred to find the net.
Saturday 15:00;
Wolves’ plight looks bleak and they really need to win a football game soon. Perhaps it will come in this Molineux clash against Brentford, with Rob Edwards’ side 13/5 with William Hill to finally land their first three-point haul of the campaign. The Bees are hovering around the even money mark to win, with Ladbrokes chalking up 21/20. However, the draw offers better value and that’s available at 23/10 with BoyleSports.
Brighton & Hove Albion and Sunderland are both riding high in the Premier League, with the Seagulls 8/13 with Betfred to claim three points against a Black Cats side fresh from winning the Tyne-Wear derby. Regis Le Bris’ side are a 4/1 chance with Bet365 to claim the spoils, although they have avoided defeat in 50% of away matches. Perhaps a draw could be on the cards at 3/1 with William Hill.
AFC Bournemouth have been sliding down the table this season, with the Cherries potentially getting sucked into a relegation scrap. A win over Burnley should sooth any issues and they’re 1/2 favourites with bet365 to beat the Clarets. You can get a much lumpier 6/4 with Coral that the Dorset side win without conceding, with Antoine Semenyo available at 13/10 with Betfred to score.
Manchester City are firmly in the Premier League title hunt and they should make short work of West Ham United this weekend. William Hill make them 1/5 shots to beat a lowly Hammers side, with bet365 chalking up 21/10 that Erling Haaland breaks the deadlock. Alternatively, you might consider Phil Foden at 11/2 with the same firm and the England man is on fire right now.
Live on Sky Sports: Saturday 17:30. Tottenham Hotspur v Liverpool. Liverpool might have turned a corner under Arne Slot and they’re firm favourites to win this Saturday teatime clash in north London. The Reds are no bigger than 21/20 with Coral to fend off a Tottenham side who are lurching from one bad result to another. Thomas Frank is a man under pressure although the home team are 23/10 with Bet365.
We might expect an entertaining encounter and a Liverpool win along with BTTS Yes can be wagered at 13/5 with BoyleSports. However, Arne Slot’s side have just shut out Inter and Brighton, with a win to nil backable at 16/5 with William Hill.
Live on Sky Sports: Saturday 20:00. Everton v Arsenal. Everton can often be tricky opponents although Arsenal are odds-on to win at the Hill Dickinson Stadium. Ladbrokes make the Gunners an 8/13 chance to claim the spoils in this Saturday night encounter, although they were nearly held at home to Wolves last weekend. The Toffees would gladly take a point from this contest and this outcome is 11/4 with Coral.
A win for David Moyes’ side would please Manchester City and bet365 go 9/2 that the Merseyside team claim the points. Perhaps this will be a narrow victory in favour of Arsenal and the 1-0 winning scoreline can be wagered at 11/2 with Coral.
Live on Sky Sports Premier League: Saturday 20:00. Leeds United v Crystal Palace. There will be a bouncing festive atmosphere at Elland Road on Saturday night, with Leeds priced at 7/4 with Betfred to overcome a Crystal Palace side who might be feeling the pinch of a hectic fixture schedule. The Eagles have been pretty strong on the road this term and the London side are 8/5 with Ladbrokes to leave Yorkshire with the spoils.
The teams could feasibly cancel each other out and the draw is trading at 23/10 with Coral. We think a low-scoring clash could be on the cards and Under 2.5 Goals is available at 8/11 with William Hill which certainly looks backable.
Live on Sky Sports: Sunday 16:30. Aston Villa v Man Utd. There’s no stopping Aston Villa right now, with Unai Emery’s team potential title challengers after a string of great results. They are a backable price to overcome Manchester United in this Sunday afternoon clash. Betfred have 11/10 that the Villans beat opponents who have only won three of eight games on the road.
However, Ruben Amorim’s side are showing signs of improvement and they are 23/10 with Coral to claim a big win in the Midlands. They are certainly capable of holding their opponents based on recent performances and Bet365 have 5/2 that the clash ends all square.
Live on Sky Sports: Monday 20:00. Fulham v Nottingham Forest. Fulham are going along nicely under Marco Silva and they’ll look to push into the top half of the table with a win over Forest. The Cottagers are a 13/10 chance with Ladbrokes to beat another team who are showing signs of improvement. Sean Dyche has had a steadying influence since taking charge and the visitors are 11/5 with bet365 to claim the spoils.
A repeat of the performance that saw Forest beat Spurs 3-0 could enable them to land the points, although a draw would suit the Midlands side. BoyleSports have 23/10 that the game ends all square and a 1-1 scoreline might not be far away at 11/2 with Bet365.
